17 New Templates to Plan Your Holidays

Brian Daignault • December 12, 2018

You already know Evernote is a great way to record, store, and organize your ideas as notes. However, it’s natural to get stuck staring at a blank screen sometimes, so we wanted to give you an easy way to get started.

That’s why we created templates.

Your ideas, plans, or processes can benefit from being structured in a certain way, but creating that structure can be frustrating. And while Evernote Premium allows you to create specialized templates, we wanted to provide some specific examples to give everyone a head start.

Introducing the Holiday Collection

Ever since we launched Templates in September 2018, they’ve proven to be a big hit with Evernote customers, who have created almost a million notes using them. Now we’re back with seventeen new designs to help you get through the holidays and make the most of the new year.

Bring joy to others

While the holidays are a time for togetherness and celebration, they can also be stressful. You can use our Party Planning and Menu Planning templates to make sure your holiday get-togethers go off without a hitch and are a hit with your guests.

Finding the perfect gift for everyone on your list is a snap with our Gift Tracker template. It allows you to keep track of whom to buy gifts for and what type of gifts they prefer, while also providing you a record of what you bought, where, and when.

Give yourself a gift

Perhaps you’re thinking of taking a vacation at the end of the year. If so, our Travel Inspiration template can help you dream up and enjoy an awesome trip.

With it, you can update and maintain your vacation bucket list whenever the inspiration strikes. Then, when you’re ready to go, share your ideas with your travel agency or use them to book a trip yourself.

Stick to your resolutions

Many people make New Year’s resolutions, but keeping them isn’t as easy.

With 2019 right around the corner, we have an assortment of templates to help you make it your most productive year ever.

We’ve done the research on which resolutions are most popular. Whether your goal is to Lose Weight, Save Money, or Get Fit, we have templates to help you succeed.

Grow your career or business

Another big goal at this time of year is to Get Hired for a new job. Of course, we’ve got a template for that.

If you own your own business, we’ve got you covered too, with templates to help your new year be a success. Our Hiring Tracker helps you bring on the best candidates, while the Strategic Planning template provides an easily shareable resource to keep everyone in your company on the same page.

Make change happen

Along with your personal goals, you may also have goals for your community. Our Act Locally template was designed to help you visualize the changes you would like to see in the world around you, and how to bring others on board to make that difference.

Plan on a great year

No matter what you intend to do with your year, it’s a good idea to plan for it. That’s why we’re bringing back our popular Daily and Weekly Planners, and Monthly and Annual Calendars.

These versatile and easy-to-use templates help you stay on top of your work, activities, hobbies, and more, to keep you on track for an awesome 2019.

Stay focused

Being organized makes your life easier and reduces anxiety, which can be especially valuable during the holidays. You’re welcome to incorporate these templates however you choose, and to use Evernote Premium to modify them to best suit your needs—or create an entirely new set of templates. Whatever you do, we wish you all the best in 2019 and beyond!
